Pieces in the installation include jarring views of what one might have seen right outside a window, from a field of tents to a cemetery filled with rows of the dead. Once in the interior space, wallpaper filled with both iconic and disturbing images reminds us of the horrors of the war. A chandelier provides a look at the economic impetus behind the conflagration, and table, settee, and portraits bring a painful reminder of the walking wounded who made it home and had to continue their lives in whatever fashion was possible. A fireplace burns with images of Cincinnati, of the first mechanized/factory-based war, and of the horror and uncertainty of war. Finally, a hidden room engages viewers in the importance, especially in Cincinnati, of the Ohio River, what it meant to be on the edge of the North and South. The Lloyd website provides a portal for viewing images from the exhibition, learning about the artists and their individual contributions, and what the exhibition means to the Lloyd Library. <a href="http://www.lloydlibrary.org/exhibits/woundedhome.html">http://www.lloydlibrary.org/exhibits/woundedhome.html</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>About the Lloyd: </b>The Lloyd Library and Museum, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, is a local and regional cultural treasure, which began in the 19<sup>th</sup> century as a research library for Lloyd Brothers Pharmacists, Inc., one of the leading pharmaceutical companies of the period.
